How Weipa compares
On the combined rate across break-in, motor-vehicle and violent offences — against the 78 council areas in QLD we cover — the only fair comparison, since rates differ by state, source and period.
Over time — combined recorded rate
Break-in, motor-vehicle and violent offences combined, per 100,000 residents in Weipa. Up 19% from Jun 2021 to May 2026 (60 periods).
How to read this: these are recorded break-in, motor-vehicle and violent offences only — a subset of recorded crime, not a total. Recorded rates aren't a measure of danger, and an absence of reports doesn't mean an area is "safe". Comparisons are only with other areas in QLD at the same level. Figures are official (Queensland Police Service, LGA reported offences numbers and rates, Jun 2025-May 2026).
Your street in Weipa — not the whole council area
These numbers describe Weipa as a whole, but nobody actually watches an entire council area — you watch your own place. Add your street, a parent's home, or the kids' school as a watched place, and Pryer gives you a timely, factual heads-up when something's reported nearby — not the whole council area's worth of noise. It gets more useful as more neighbours in Weipa join in. Peace of mind, not paranoia.
